High Country Hut (Panorama) Puzzle

Step back in time with this stunning panoramic puzzle, capturing the iconic Wallace Hut nestled within Victoria’s Bogong High Plains. Built-in 1889, Wallace Hut is the oldest surviving structure in the Victorian Alps, standing resilient amidst the rugged beauty of gnarled snow gums and grassy plains.

This hut, originally constructed to shelter cattle herders, now serves as a timeless monument to Australia's alpine heritage.

Photographed by the talented Jaime Dormer, this puzzle reflects the tranquillity and natural wonder that surround Wallace Hut. Dormer’s eye for detail brings each element to life, from the aged wood of the hut to the twisted branches of the snow gums embracing the landscape.

The play of light across the snowy ground, coupled with the vivid hues of bark and foliage, invites puzzle enthusiasts to experience the serene ambience of this historic site.

“Wallace Hut is more than just a relic of the past; it’s a testament to the resilience of both the land and those who lived upon it. Capturing this scene felt like preserving a piece of Australian history,” says Jaime Dormer.

Available in 260 and 510 pieces, this puzzle is ideal for those who appreciate a medium challenge while uncovering a scene rich in natural beauty and history. Crafted with eco-friendly materials and printed with kid-safe watercolour inks, each piece fits precisely, making it a rewarding and immersive experience.

Produced by Australian-made QPuzzles, each puzzle piece reflects a commitment to sustainability and quality. Crafted using eco-friendly materials and printed with water-safe inks, this premium puzzle is designed to bring Dormer’s photography into your home while respecting the environment.

Bring the spirit of Australia’s high country into your home with this beautifully crafted puzzle that celebrates heritage and nature in harmonious detail.

Framing the Image

Frame Details:
The photograph is presented in an elegant, contemporary frame designed to elevate and preserve the artwork. It is encased in a prestige white Majorca moulding, complemented by clarity UV70 glass to ensure protection against light exposure. The use of double acid-free white matting, accented by a Dawsons hand-made dark oaka linen and a silver fillet, provides a refined contrast that enhances the photograph’s vivid colors and depth.

The image is printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308gsm, a museum-quality 100% cotton paper that brings out the photograph's rich tones and details. To protect and maintain the integrity of the print, three coatings of Hahnemühle protective surface spray have been meticulously applied in a crosshatch pattern.

Dimensions:

• Image Size: 20"x30" (50x76cm)
• Frame Size: 35"x45" (89x114cm)

This framed print embodies Dormer’s commitment to quality, with every detail carefully considered to offer an exceptional fine art experience. It is not just a photograph; it is a journey into a landscape sculpted by time, light, and natural forces.
